  • Kit Moonstar on Yell if I can help dig some graves once you’re finished.Second that this is a fantastic read and the perfect sort of enemies to lovers romance. I could easily devour an entire novel about these...
  • Emmalita on Quick Questions with a Cannonballer: OwlizabethSam Irby would be a blast to hang out with.
  • Emmalita on It’s magic, you know, never believe it’s not so!This looks like so much fun.
  • narfna on Cannonballing with an excellent but very intense mystery/thriller.Thanks! And yes, this is not a Malin book. It's very very good but I think your parental instincts would give you some trouble.
  • narfna on Cannonballing with an excellent but very intense mystery/thriller.I still love that book! This one is just as well written but different aims, I think.
